Hi all....Just to give some thanks..since I've found that the situation is considerably better. Now After replacing the needles and needle jets the bike does about 16.5 km /l , which compared to the average 14 that it was doing before is still an improvement.I use the bike mainly for commuting , about 40 km each day and part of this in urban traffic. I'm waiting for some holidays so I can try it out over a longer journey, since I'm sure it'll do even better.
The other things that seem to have helped (apart from cleaning out the carbs) were new floats and valves (engine ran much smoother), but the needles and jets (40 minutes of fiddling and 12 euros) were the best thing I could have done.
Saluti,
Antonio
